For satisfying the historian of computer science in you, here is the first paper ever written on genetic programming. This paper was presented in July of 1985 at Carnegie-Mellon University in Pittsburgh, PA, by Nichael Lynn Cramer of Texas Instruments. The paper is titled " A Representation for the Adaptive Generation of Simple Sequential Programs", and its abstract reads:
An adaptive system for generating short sequential computer functions is described. The created functions are written in the simple "number-string" language JB, and in TB, a modified version of JB with a tree-like structure. These languages have the feature that they can be used to represent well-formed, useful computer programs while still being amenable to suitably defined genetic operators. The system isused to produce two-input, single-output multiplication functions that are concise and well-defined. Future work, dealing with extensions to more complicated functions and generalizations of the techniques, is also discussed. |
